There has to be a better way to do this. And I'm going to figure out what it is. ☝☝☝ That's the mindset that's led me to build every business I've started. Most people don't think enough about how to solve the biggest issues we're facing right now. And that's a problem. Because if no one's questioning the status quo, things like Climate change The housing crisis Economic inequity Are never going to change. The B-Team was born out of looking for a better way to do things. Now it's just celebrated its 10 year anniversary. And the leaders in the B-Team are still using their influence to work toward sustainable business practices every day. After the B-Team, I founded Aera VC so I could invest in companies that are creating tangible solutions to help reverse climate change. And now Aera is working to address the fact that so many Kiwis are locked out the housing market. Instead of just accepting the system as it is, we're questioning it. Creating a creative solution rather than just sitting back. Our Deposit Accelerator product is already helping hundreds of Kiwis save up a deposit faster. Because I'm not one for sitting on the sidelines when there's a problem. It's just not in my nature.

In today's fast-moving business world, scaling up is a must. It lets you grow, adapt, and grab new opportunities while staying efficient. The Bord na Móna 2024 Accelerate Green program is an excellent example of an initiative focused on helping those in the green business thrive by offering financial support, expertise, networking, sustainability alignment, and market access. If you're running a startup or scale-up with a strong sustainability focus and aiming to make a real impact in Ireland and beyond, I would recommend you consider applying before the application date closes - 10th November 2023. It's a great opportunity to supercharge your green business growth. #GreenBusiness #ScaleSustainability #GrowWithExpertise #BusinessGrowth
